Earthlock: Festival Of Magic Targets Nintendo Switch Launch

With Earthlock: Festival of Magic edging ever closer to release on Wii U in early 2017, Snowcastle Games has indicated their intentation to bring their sprawling role-playing game to Nintendo Switch.

When asked whether the developer had any plans for a Nintendo Switch version, Snowcastle Games CEO Bendik Stang acknowledged the team’s desire to do so and that, with Nintendo’s approval, they “plan to have Earthlock ready for Switch launch in March 2017.”
